How to use jQuery .get() in Windows Gadget

I'm trying to get data from a web-page into my sidebar gadget via:

$.get("http://localhost/index.php", function(data) {
    $("#result").html("Data Loaded: " + data);
});

When I view this via my Apache webserver, it works.
Using this code within the Gadget, it doesn't.

Is there a way to simply get data from a web-page into a Windows Gadget?

Yes! you have to set this property:

jQuery.support.cors = true;
